Direct Imaging Constraints on Binary Planets and Exomoons around Epsilon Indi A b

Posted by klaurent MIT

Kavli Affiliate: Andrew Vanderburg | Summary:Epsilon Indi A b is a directly imaged $sim6 M_rm Jup$ exoplanet orbiting a nearby (3.6 pc) K-dwarf at $sim 30$ AU. We analyze archival JWST/MIRI 15 $μ$m coronagraphic imaging of this planet to search for directly imaged satellites orbiting Eps Ind A b. Within the planet’s Hill sphere (radius […]
